Swh, I'm merely commenting on the premise/article, I offered my opinion based on an analytical interest in the subject rather than having a viewing to say one thing is better than the other. Your comment regarding gullibility was neither called for or appreciated.
You can believe what you like regarding where EADS feel the program should be, the facts speak for themselves, the 380 airframe has cost them a boatload (Leahy and Champion are on record saying just as much), it will never recoup its development costs and it will most likely go the way of the L1011, Caravelle, Concorde et al.
Very popular with the passengers, but not it would seem with the vast majority of potential operators around the world.
If I'm wrong I'll happily admit it and everyone will order and operate them, so far it has proven to be a commercial flop for EADS and is in no small part responsible for the renewed effort that has gone into the A350 airframe.
